- Marc-André Fleury full training session at the first day of Minnesota Wild 2023 training camp.
This video includes goalie training session with couple of drills before the team practice. Team practice with flow drills and 3 puck penalty shot competition to finish of the ice session.
I think the biggest thing you can pick from this is that ”you play like you train”. You’ll notice the creativity that comes only from doing it at practices and also how it looks like he is having fun. Kind of like he’d be playing street hockey with friends.
Side note: one of the key things for a long career is how can you keep it fun and enjoy going to the rink most of the time because at some point even hockey is going to feel like any other job ”a job”. Emotion management becomes one of the hardest things to do when you constantly have to perform at your highest level. If you are a pro you know what I’m talking about or if you have been in high competition environments.
When you look at Fleury you can see things that our generation of goalies learned when growing up and what would be now considered ”old school”. There are still hints of that to be seen even he plays as any other modern goalie.
When looking at his technique pick a one thing you focus on. For example, what only skates and the movement. That will help you to see details.
One very important thing to understand and why I think this video is also great to watch for young goalies is that there are still plenty of mistakes even we are looking at one of the best goalies of all times. We still work on the same things wheter we are 15 or 35. Focus of drills is just a little different and how we do them.
Fleury is naturally talented and I have seen him at U20 championships being clearly at different level. But without hard and smart work talent gets you only so far.
WHAT TO PICK FROM THIS VIDEO:
Let your personality to reflect in your style because that way you will enjoy playing more.
At practices don’t be afraid of trying different things.
Not every shot has to be or even can be taken with 100% effort but you can still have 100% focus. It is called energy management. Older you get better you become at it because you will know yourself better.
When watching Fleury you can see a goalie who has incorporated some of the ”old school” techniques to modern style.
For young goalies the single biggest thing I’d say to pick from this practice video: Active butterfly style. Meaning that even when being compact there is never lock and wait, instead constant flow and ready to react.

Let's go Fleury 🌸
9:27 that save lol! haha
Total fleury, and he’d def do that in a game as well
Agree
Damn he's so efficient
everything to like about a sportsman who's been at the top of his chosen sport for so many seasons. a true role-model on & off the ice for up & coming hockey players not just goaltender's. thanks for such a video & most of all many, many thanks to marc-andre fleury for the enjoyment he's brought to this wonderful game! merci.
been waiting months for this! great stuff.
Passion+ Hardwork= Master piece. well done
Love how the players let him initiate the break away drill in the end. So he won't be totally gassed when doing it.
He’s still old school on his pad strap setup. Most now have a couple Velcro straps he still has leather. Also they sit a lot lower on his skates unlike the hi water look most use today.
Yeah you can really see the difference @3:06
I am going to be honest I think straps are better then velcro
You can make the pads tighter
@@princemoneycat5294 i like velcro bc I dont like my pads too tight and the elastic straps give some flex rather than more stiff leather straps. Used both tho
@@princemoneycat5294pads shouldn’t be tight, they won’t be able to move around. I had leather straps and they tightened just as much as Velcro
If you've ever taken a puck on the outside of your skate boot, by the arch, you'd know why.
I would love to see a video about his workouts and stuff. Id like to know the secret behind how hes so flexible after so many nhl seasons
I'd like to see his off ice training too. Secret to flexibility: Some are naturally more flexible than others but for guys like me it takes daily work. And pretty much every high level pro guy works on it daily. So, just good habits. I saw him the first time at U20 championships and what separated him already 20 years ago was the explosiveness and speed which he clearly has talent for. Some guys naturally have great jump ability that shows in the ice as amazing movement. When you make it even better with training and combine with other skills this is the result.
COOLEST VIDEO EVER! Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! Marc-Andre is my fave NHL player. I’ve never gotten to see him in training, so this was a real treat! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌸❤️🤩
🏆🤩
This is a definite save.
His moves are clean
The goalie force is explained in this video 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Can't wait to show my kiddo
Those pokes, it's like a harpoon.
Flower 🌸 + Chabot
Go Flower Go turn the pucks into blooming flowers like it's spring 🤘
Goalies: The most agile players on the ice.
Can he even close that glove?
its a practice palm, they are really stiff and padded to prevent injury over the hundreds of shots, game palms are much thinner
This is interesting to see, Fleury isn't leading his movements with his head and eyes, but rather moves in the direction of the passed puck while turning. This habit usually is taught to be bad.
That is actually interesting that you are picking it up. If someone reads this comment it will help them to be much faster: In theory we want to lead with eyes and head which goalies at all levels aim to do and all the decent coaches teach it. BUT we have to look at real life outside of theory. If you are always doing "lead with the head and eyes before moving anything else" you'll be late often. Especially when you are with pro guys. Things just happen so fast that you can't simple "let me turn my head first". HERE IS ANOTHER SECRET that makes you faster: You scan the situation so you know the play before it happens. You know where the sticks are, what options players have and before the situation happens you know options. Visuals give your brain data to process and that is why it is super important to turn the head and scan the area. CONCLUSION: When you see the pass, you move to direction where you know the puck is going and while moving/turning you lock your eyes to the stick where the puck will land. And of course you'll need to know where the stick is where the pass is going to. Try this at the next practice and NOW YOU HAVE TAKE TO YOUR SPEED TO ANOTHER LEVEL.
@@GoalieForceThis was a real treat to watch of my very fave NHL player! Thank you!
Would it be possible to video him in a workout and publish it? Would love to see how he stays so fit, strong and flexible.
@@GoalieForcethanks for this- super helpful!
10 seconds in... I'm already tired..
